Brief Summary

Squamous cell carcinoma of the VADS represents the majority of cancers in ENT. Metastatic lymph node involvement is an important prognostic factor. In N0 patients clinically and scanographically, the prevalence of cervical lymph node metastasis remains important. Only the anatomopathological analysis of cervical lymph node dissection confirms the presence of a micro-metastasis. However, new criteria of interpretation in nuclear medicine seem promising in the detection of lymph node lesions not detectable in traditional imaging. The main objective of this study is to study the positive predictive value (PPV) of CT scans in the anatomo-pathological analysis of N0 clinical and radiological or N + unilateral neck ganglia in patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • metastatic lymph node involvement

    The outcome is analyzing histologic metastatic lymph node. The outcome data table will include the presence of histologic metastatic lymph node, localization of the lymph invaded, presence of capsular rupture, and preoperative TEP CT data.

    30 days

Interventions

PET-CTDIAGNOSTIC_TEST

A PET-CT scan will be performed systematically for all patients included with the SUVmax, SUV peak, MTV of the lesion, and up to 3 suspicious ganglia during the visual analysis.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

The population selected is that of any patient with squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity classified N0 clinical and radiological or unilateral N +, M0, not challenged for tumor resection surgery and bilateral cervical dissection. They will benefit in their assessment of extension of a PET-CT. Patients will be selected during an ENT or maxillofacial consultation. They will receive clear and appropriate information from the study. They will decide whether to participate in the study.

You may qualify if:

  • st localization of squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity.
  • Any tumor T according to the 2017 classification, N0 clinical and radiological or N + unilateral, M0
  • Not challenged for tumor resection surgery and bilateral dissection.

You may not qualify if:

  • age \<18 years
  • opposition of the curator concerning the person under guardianship
  • subject under guardianship or deprived of liberty
  • antecedent treatment of cancer of the upper aero-digestive tract (surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy)
  • any current treatment for another cancer site
